When Shibasaki has created an adult coloring book and his own line of crayons that go down so well you can make a whole ass impressionist portrait with them but I don't think it's been released in the U.S. so I can't buy them 😭
[Video captioned in Japanese and subtitled in English]

There is no right way to do art, only techniques that make accomplishing your desired affect in your desired medium easier/more consistent.
I don't know shit about art - I write and knit - but there's a channel on youtube called Watercolor By Shibasaki where a kindly old Japanese grandpa has videos of his own paintings and some tutorials in watercolour technique. He speaks in Japanese, but he's subtitled it in English. I watch just because he's soothing, but I've used some of the techniques he mentioned in projects I made for family members.
i hate negative language in art tutorials. "why you suck", "why this is WRONG!" clickbait ass titles. exhausting, and phrasing like that at especially a young age did loads of damage to my mentality working with art. idk i don't have a good way of expressing what i mean and i think most people don't care, but to me it is one of the most subtly evil things

So I have a question. Lately I’ve been trying to get more into watercolour painting and I was wondering if you would have any tips or advice for me about it?
Omg I'm really sorry I don't know if I ever got this notification and I rarely check the inbox tab;;;;;;; If you're still interested in watercolor painting, here are some things that range from technical to personal: -materials will really make and break how you feel when you paint. But I think in hierarchy of importance I think Paper> Paint> Brushes. The less cotton percentage there is to a paper, the more it will buckle or how it effects the pooling/flow of your water paints or how intense the colors could be. -Unfortunately the more cotton the paper is the more expensive. But when I started out I was using strathmore and fabriano for my classes and EFN comics with a 12 color artist grade paint set and was satisfied with those at the time.
Then I thought I was being big brained when I bought these gigantic XL Canson watercolor paper for sale for comic making and then I thought my skills went to dust cause painting felt so hard and the paper fought me with a lot of paper breakage and ugly color blends results. -Lol I thought watercolor would be the easiest then my painting teacher in college declared 'Welcome to the Hardest Painting Medium of them all!!!' and I cried. XD But all he really meant was that compared to Oils or Acrylics you have to paint and plan your lightest to darkest ahead cause you can't paint lighter tones on top of the dark ones without risk of reactivating the paints. Of course this doesn't matter if we're talking about mix mediums. And with today's tech you can always plan out your paintings first with digital tools like mateusz urbanowicz does. In terms of youtubers there's tons to look at: I like Mateusz' for the bright and light illustrations, Mind of a Watercolor for some technical know hows in materials and tree scape techniques, and then Watercolor by Shibasaki is just a Japanese grandpa teaching you to be chill and just have fun as you paint. Hope this helps and sorry again for the late reply;;;

Ooooooh this is what makes the internet special. If you can find trustworthy people, youtubers make learning a little bit of everything so much easier and more fun*! I have some recommendations!
*While all of my recommended channels will be good, not all of them will be lighthearted. Some will deal with heavy topics, but all are educational and entertaining (or at least, they are to me).
Casual Geographic - nature and the animal kingdom, usually the more upsetting side. Very dry, sharp sense of humour.
Miniminuteman/Milo Rossi - archaeology and conspiracy theory debunking. Very savage, caustic humour, but very informative.
Lindsay Nikole - nature and animal kingdom, interested a lot in evolution and weird/bizarre/ugly creatures.
Oceanliner Designs/Mike Brady - predominantly discusses oceanliners (a specific class of passenger/cargo ship meant for overseas transit a la Titanic), but also talks a lot about shipwrecks, lost ships and ships in general. Also, he's Australian!
TierZoo - animal facts in the form of video game character stats and talks about the natural world like a MMORPG. Lots of fun and very wholesome.
H Bomberguy - what- what does he do? Everything? Nothing? All I know is he tells me stuff for hours at a time and is quite entertaining.
Ze Frank - nature and animal kingdom. Not for children, or adults who don't act like children. (Though he does have an alternate channel where he has the straight factual videos with the dirty jokes and innuendos left out.)
Legal Eagle - a US lawyer who weighs in on current legal cases and explains law in a down to earth, accessible way. He does talk about political trials/legal issues too, but you can ignore those if you'd prefer.
Adam Something - a Hungarian man who goes over infrastructure and mega projects and discusses if they're viable or stupid. If all life is to become crab, all transit is to become train.
Isabella Lanter - anti-MLM/scam girlie who is just very real and up front. She posts videos about scam products/offerings/opportunities and debunks MLM trainings/propaganda.
Kurzgesagt-In A Nutshell - very, very good and informative videos about a variety of scientific topics from space to animals to disease to physics.
Contrapoints - social justice discussed by a transwoman. She's very funny and witty, as well as open about her trans experiences. Deals with a lot of heavy topics with solid humour but not dismissive.
Casual Navigation - another ship channel, but discusses more how they work and why.
B. Dylan Hollis - teeeeechnically a Tiktoker, BUT he has a youtube channel with longer form content and his compilations are available on youtube so there. He does old timey cooking that turns out as bad as you think it will about half the time.
Bright Sun Films/Bright Sun Travels - videos about abandoned/bankrupt/dead companies and properties mostly in North America. On Travels, he gives honest, thorough reviews of places he's stayed at.
Caitlin Doughty (formerly Ask A Mortician) - cool videos about the funeral industry and dead bodies. Her video on the SS Eastland was fantastic.
Folding Ideas - kinda like H Bomb, but more centralized on film with off-the-rails, well informed videos about random shit from crypto to the Nostalgic Critic.
Lost In The Pond - cultural comparisons from a British man about living in Britain vs the US. Very cute and curious.
Practical Engineering - informational stuff mostly about civil engineering but discussing other stuff. He's such a dad; he makes little demonstration models sometimes.
Real Engineering - he talks more mechanical engineering, but still very good.
Todd In The Shadows - music critic who focuses more on modern pop music, but does retrospectives on failed albums and past music. His early videos rely on "angry" reviews, but his humour gets drier and better the closer to the present he is (though honestly they're all good).
Watercolor by Shibasaki - a little bit different, this is a channel hosted by an elderly Japanese man (english subtitles provided!) who paints and teaches how to paint in watercolours. Think Japanese Mr. Rogers meets Bob Ross.
And then there's a bunch of channels all hosted by the same British man named Simon, who's got a great speaking voice and is very informative.
Biographics - profiling famous and infamous people with an eye away from the scandalous and hyperbolic, focusing more on the historical.
Geographics - Biographics, but for places.
Warographics - has largely non-partisan and historcally oriented descriptions of battles and military units, but also has a current events show hosted weekly that discusses updates on modern battlefields and does not shy away from stories not widely covered (Ukraine, Palestine, Sudan, Haiti, Myanmar, etc.).
Casual Criminalist - true crime podcast where Simon cold-reads the script. The show does not focus on the gory details of killings and takes the deaths seriously, but Simon getting upset at the cops for taking so fucking long to fogure shit out is always funny.
Decoding the Unknown - cold-read podcast where he talks about mysteries and things that aren't common knowledge
MegaProjects - discusses megaprojects both planned and completed.
SideProjects - shorter form videos that discuss particular aspects of projects or briefer overviews of them.
Brain Blaze - another cold-read podcast, but just kinda about anything? A lot lighter, not really about anything that matters.
And finally, shoutout to Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. It's technically an HBO show, but 20-30 minute segments of the show are available on youtube and are both informative and deeply entertaining.

I haven't drawn or painted anything for a long time  ಥ ウಥ , so I decided to practice with a little tutorial (if you can call it that) from the great Shibasaki, the raccoon didn't look the same, but I feel proud of it enough to upload it.
Follow him on Youtube! he has some good videos (•̪◡•̪) *:・゚✧.

For painting in watercolor I love Shibasaki's videos
youtube
knitting tutorial made by a twenty-something knitting influencer: 18 min long, 12 of those minutes being the intro and a sponsor plug, they show the first few steps of the tutorial at the slowest speed known to man, they show the most important steps at a neck-break speed, they stop every five seconds to talk about what they just did, 40,000 comments filled with questions ranging from insightful to “how do i knit”, filmed with a camera that costs more than a car, the tutorial is incorrect.
knitting tutorial made by a seventy-something grandmother: two min long, filmed 17 years ago, shows you what you want with the skilled patient hands of a beloved deity, made with the world’s shittiest camera, the best video on the fucking internet, four comments and 30 views, you lose the video and never find it again.
